6. Add in the stock and cook briskly again until reduced by half.

7. Once reduced, whisk in the mustard and Worcestershire sauce.

8. Mix in the cayenne and whisk in the butter.

9. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper, strain and keep warm.

10.Serve the roast kidneys with the hot sauce.
